Call for papers - CERME 4 - Gruppo 5 (Research on probabilistic and statistical thinking)
CERME 4: Group 5
Stochastic Thinking (Research on probabilistic and statistical
thinking)
The Fourth Conference of the European Society for Research in Mathematics
Education (CERME 4) takes place at
Sant Feliu de Guíxols, Spain,
from 17 to 21 February 2005.
CERME is a conference organised by the European Society for Research in
Education, and is designed to foster a communicative spirit. It
deliberately and distinctively moves away from research presentations by
individuals towards collaborative group work. Its main feature is to be a
number of thematic groups whose members will work together in a common
research area. This message refers to one, Group 5, of 14 such
groups.
We will have 12 hours over four days in which to meet and progress our
work on stochastic thinking. Submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by
reviewers, as far as possible chosen from the group of participants in
Group 5. The process will NOT be a blind review. If you submit a paper to
Group 5, you are likely to be asked to review one or more papers. Please
indicate when submitting a paper if you think this is
inappropriate.
All accepted papers will be published on the internet and made available
to participants in the group to read before the conference. The group
leaders will organise activity and discussion in the conference around
issues raised by the papers.

The organisers for Group 5 invite research-based papers on stochastic
thinking, including probability, statistics and the interface between
these domains.
We will be particularly interested in theoretical, empirical or
developmental papers that address one or more of the following themes
(though any papers of relevance to the overall focus of the group will
also be considered):
- The nature and development of stochastic thinking and its
relationship to other types of mathematical thinking, including the
interface between probabilistic and statistical thinking, such as in
modelling or data exploration.
- The relationship between stochastic thinking and external factors
such as teaching methodologies, tools, tasks and setting.
- The role of computer-based tools, including microworlds, on
stochastic thinking.
- The elaboration of theoretical frameworks that may provide insightful
models for interpreting evidence from research on stochastic thinking.
We wish to encourage papers from researchers world-wide.
Papers for Group 5 on Stochastic Thinking should be submitted
electronically by September 30th, 2004, to Dave Pratt
(dave.pratt@warwick.ac.uk),
together with the submission form. This form and details of format for
papers are given on the CERME4 web site (see above for URL).
If you have further questions, please contact any of the leaders of the
group (email addresses are given below).
